English Literature, Language and Linguistics

Students doing the Modern Languages Year Abroad follow a different application process. Please check the Year Abroad Support Community on Canvas and attend your SML2099 briefings for guidance. Email year.abroad@ncl.ac.uk with any queries.

You can apply for up to four student exchange programmes. Some partner universities have limited places, often one or two, so use all of your application choices and be prepared not to get your first choice. Some partner universities and destinations are more popular than others, so try to select alternative options from different cities. 

We keep our exchange partner information as up to date as possible, but sometimes changes happen at short notice. 

It's important that you research the universities you're interested in. Don’t rule out locations you may not have heard of - there are some hidden gems on our lists.
